Transcribed For Solo Electric Bass. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. While many electric bassists study the Bach cello suites at some point, fewer attempt the sonatas and partitas for un- accompanied violin (BWV 1001-1006). Composed around 1720, the sonatas and partitas display rich polyphonic writing, unlike the simpler monophonic cello suites. This collection features a challenging but rewarding transcription of the complete A minor Violin Sonata (BWV 1002), which fits particularly well on the bass. Also included are the well-known gavotte en rondeau from the E major violin partita (BWV1006) and the complete A minor partita for solo flute (BWV 1013), transposed here to D minor. Finally, an arrangement of the familiar chorale Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring (from BWV 147) takes advantage of the bass's natural and artificial harmonics. Performance notes are included. Written in notation and tablature for the 4-string electric bass. / Niveau : Intermédiaire / Baroque - Solos / Tablatures / Guitare Basse Tablatures

Without any doubt J.S. Bach?s cycle of the three Sonatas and Partitas BWV 1001-1006 represents one of the pinnacles of classical European music. According to C.P.E. Bach a contemporary voice stated that there was ?nothing more accomplished in order to become a good violinist? than his father?s works. The cycle reflects the entire harmonic and polyphonic musical universe of Bach?s time, so masterfully composed that it can be rendered within the limited framework of but a single instrument the violin.
The new publication of the Sonatas and Partitas BWV 1001-1006 (BA 5256) constitutes a complete revision of our older edition (BA 5116). The musical text has been edited by Peter Wollny and represents the most up-to-date state of research as published in the New Bach Edition Revised (NBArev), volume BA 5937-01. The edition is mainly based on Bach?s unusually clear autograph which is considered among the most beautiful manuscripts by the composer. All relevant secondary sources have been taken into consideration in order to clarify ambiguities. These include five contemporary copies, including one by Anna Magdalena Bach, and four manuscripts from the late 18th and early 19th centuries.
The musical text has been newly engraved with a clear and generous layout, whereby page turns and pagination have been retained from the previous edition. This allows the straightforward navigation between a copy of the previous and this new edition. The detailed Preface (Ger/Eng) provides information on the genesis of the Sonatas and Partitas, their context and the sources.

Johann Sebastian Bach sonates et Partitas pour violon Solo sont parmi les plus célèbres chefs-d'oeuvre de leur genre. Contrairement aux étroitement apparentées Suites pour violoncelle Solo, les solos de violon ont survécu dans un manuscrit autographe du compositeur sur la base de laquelle seul un texte musical en grande partie fiable est disponible. Cependant, ce manuscrit est une copie du projet des copies antérieures ou encore plus équitables copies du compositeur. Wiener Urtext édition utilise la copie du copiste un début de Köthen comme source secondaire qui n'a pas été évaluée très fortement comme source jusqu'à maintenant. Malgré sa proximité avec l'autographe existante, on ne peut écarter la possibilité que cette copie pourrait remonter à un autre manuscrit original de Bach. Quoi qu'il en soit, certaines erreurs évidentes de la copie équitable existante peuvent être précisées sur la base de son texte - en outre, elle fournit un certain nombre d'articulations ne pas indiqué ailleurs (certains même avec les solutions de rechange) qui sont des exemples de comment ces oeuvres peut être effectué en accordin... / Violon / Partition

dalla Sonata prima a Violino Solo senza Basso. Par BACH JOHANN SEBASTIAN. For this transcription the author used a photographic copy of the autograph manuscript of Sonatas and Partitas for Solo Violin (BWV 1001-1006) by Johann Sebastian Bach, dated 1720 and kept in the Staatbibliothek Preussicher Kulturbesits, Berlin. The adjustments to the original text mainly concern: harmonic enrichments suggested by the implicit polyphony, which is typical of the works for string instruments by Bach, necessary corrections to remedy simple misprints, a clearer and more complete polyphony. For this reason, when two or more voices moves homorhythmically, the related pauses are grouped to avoid graphic overload, according to the current practice./ Recueil / Guitare
